The money cellar is an interesting rock formation

The White Stone marks a regional geological feature. Here, a rock formation consisting of a quartz vein emerges, striking for its atypical white color. This formation is also known as the Karasek Cave, named after the robber captain Johannes Karasek. This is said to have been the meeting place of the gang before and after several raids. While the robber captain actually existed, legend has it that his treasure, which has not yet been found, is hidden at this location. The story of the robber captain and information on the geology can be found in the Karasek Museum in Seifhennersdorf. Coming from Großschönau, it's worth taking a detour about 300 meters from the road and then continuing on to the Karasek Museum.

The White Stone is a rock formation up to six meters high in the Hofebusch forest near Spitzkunnersdorf in Upper Lusatia. Erosion also created the so-called Karasek Cave in this rock.

Accessible premises of the tunnel in Jirikov were thoroughly documented in the publication Podzemi Sluknovska a Luzickych hor - see Books from the Museum Fund. The tunnel itself is interrupted by a demolition at meter 64 (photo 4). The tunnel is said to be up to 140 meters long. The tunnel was created at the end of World War II, but its purpose and use are currently unknown - probably everything is related to war production.

The festival play "Barbarossa's Awakening" was performed here on June 23, 1872. The plot of the play involves Germany's uprising and unification in 1871.

The Geldkeller is located on the eastern slope directly at the castle rampart - a very striking rock formation. At the north foot there is a small cave, which gave the rock its name. A legend tells that in this cave on St. John's Day (three days after the summer solstice) a wall opens and gold is found in a secret cellar. In fact, on the morning of the summer solstice, the sun shines through a viewing slit into the cave and paints a golden spot of light on the inner wall of the cave entrance. At sunset, on the summer solstice, the sun shines directly through the entrance to the cave, giving the interior a golden glow. Large boulders piled one on top of the other form two viewing windows above the cave entrance. One allows a view of the morning sun of spring and autumn, as well as the morning sun of the winter solstice and opposite the evening sun of the summer solstice. The second viewing window is just to the east of the cave entrance. Here the sun appears at the winter solstice at the moment when it disappears behind the hill fort at Berggrad and at the evening sun in spring and autumn. The Geldkeller is very easy to reach. A road leads to the Löbauer Berg. There is a parking lot between the two hilltops. From here you walk in the direction of the radio tower. Then follow the course of the ramparts until the path leads through the ramparts to a small rock in the east. This rock is the money cellar. The way is also signposted. Source: Hand of the Gods
